“A free Nintendo Account is required to make a reservation”

Well, we’ve just had our first proper look at the Nintendo Museum, courtesy of Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto and at the very end of the broadcast, an opening date was confirmed.

The official launch for this new museum located in Kyoto, Japan will take place this year on 2nd October 2024:

“The Nintendo Museum in Kyoto, Japan is scheduled to open on October 2nd, 2024!”

The museum will feature multiple historical exhibits, a shop where you can purchase merchandise, a cafe, and eight interactive experiences powered by a special play ticket.

As part of this announcement, Nintendo is now also accepting drawing entries for October and November tickets, where you are given a chance to reserve tickets. It’s noted on the official website that tickets will be sold via a “randomly selected drawing” and must be purchased before your visit. You’ll also need a Nintendo Account to make a reservation. The entry deadline is 31st August 2024.

We’ll have more information to share about the Nintendo Museum soon.
